Will Bob Iger Become Commissioner of Major League Baseball

Page Six is reporting that Major League Baseball is very interested in having Bob Iger be the next Commissioner of Baseball. MLB is looking for someone to replace Bud Selig before his contract expired January 24. However, Iger is under contract with Disney through June 2016. A source told Page Six, “MLB has expressed an enormous amount of interest in Iger as a potential candidate. But he is still contracted at Disney for another two years, and no official talks have taken place. He definitely hasn’t been offered the job — yet. Perhaps they will keep the post open for him, or maybe Bud might agree to stay on. It’s too early to say.”

Neither Disney nor Bob Iger has commented on this report.
